Poll - Moose Points
« on: May 29, 2015, 09:31:21 AM »
Since we've got a poll going for how many deer and elk points people have, I thought we needed one for moose too. I have 19 because somehow I missed one year. I hope to be down to zero in a couple weeks.   :tup:

Was yours a raffle tag?

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

14 points.  I thought that was a decent amount until looking at this poll.  Lots of people out there with more points than me. 

I can't imagine getting in the game now and starting out at 1 point.  I'd feel like impossible odds of drawing just starting out.
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

I drew in 2013 and after 33 years of putting in, I deserved it!  After I got my moose, I was talking to a neighbor of the person who owned the cabin we were staying in.  He said that the year before, he ran into a woman who had just shot a moose.  He asked her how many years she had put in.  She casually replied, "Oh, this was the first year I applied," like it was no big deal.   :bash:

12 for me. kinda weird though it seems no matter how hard the draw is the average points to draw are usually 10 or 11 points.

Splitshot, you must have missed one year. You should have 20 points this year if you've been applying since the first year of the point system, which was 1996.

I stopped buying for moose in wa. didnt have that many to compete anyways lost interest due to the overwhelming odds of drawing.Right or wrong I started to think that by the time I got enough points to reasonably compete in the draw they would change the system in WA. anyways.Started to think that when I want to do moose Ill just go somewhere and buy the OTC Tag and do it up with a guide.  :tup: Building for sheep and goat instead.

Does the confusion lie in counting this years application as a point? If you had points from 1996 through 2014 that would be 19 and 2015's chance makes 20. Am I right?
